Rejected Princesses Book Is An Exciting Poetic And
Very Accurate Reflection On Historic Events
100 Amazing Women from History, Literature, and Folklore to Be Fascinated With
By JASON PORATH, the former animator at DreamWorks Animation where he worked on films such as Kung Fu Panda 2, The Croods, How to Train Your Dragon 2.
We are so fascinated with the Disney Princesses! We love them. We watch movies about them. They rule the worlds and souls of our children, setting a positive example of their character. And the character can be rebellious, strong and creative, enthusiastic and joyful – all the good stuff we wish for our children and ourselves. Here’s a huge treat for you and your entire family if you would love to open up your point of view and learn more about the women who historically made quite an entrance into this world.
The Rejected Princesses book is about the women from history, literature and folklore who made significant waves in how we view and treat the women today. They were the pioneers of their time, of their cultures, prejudices and extreme judgement when it comes to a different point of view.
These women were the Princesses, the Heroins for their people and following. Now, you and I can truly explore their contribution to our world history with this precious gift – an encyclopedia written by Jason Porath about 100 prominent women and their contribution to the world we live in now.
Discover the Names of the Historic Figures
In The Rejected Princesses Encyclopedia
Personally, I have discovered the names I’ve never heard at school or in my college days. Here are a few names for you to see if you recognize any!
Nzinga Mbande, Sybil Ludington, Katie Sandwina, Gracia Mendes Nasi, Chiyome Mochizuki, Wallada bint al-Mustakfi, Mai Bhago, Kharboucha, Marguerite de la Rocque, Micaela Bastidas – have you heard of any of them?
Don’t be in despair if you haven’t. I knew less than 1/3 of names listed in this book. That is why Rejected Princesses would be an awesome gift you can give yourself and your family to read and learn about these women and their place in history.
Exquisite Illustrations of the Princesses in the Book
Each story is an amazing journey into the historic time. The pages are done in antique golden colors and hues. Plus, look at the colorful circles on the side with letters and numbers! These are the ratings for the content you are about to read. It rates maturity, violence, sex content – there are no secrets what you are going to be exposed to! I love this feature, it is very Family-Friendly!

Heather,
This book is so well designed and illustrated!
It offers a peak into the heroins from all the centuries! I love how much I learned from this book alone! I have never heard of the majority of the women in this book. And I thought I knew history and literature well, hmm. We never know anything, really.
Live is a constant discovery that comes from curiosity in us.
Highly recommend this book for personal use and as a gift!
